I love this place. I’ve never been one for group workouts - always preferred doing my own thing. But Matt has created a great atmosphere and community. If you’re looking for a nice place to get an effective workout, look no further than Beachside Barbell!

A Life-Changing 28-Day Challenge at Beach Side Barbell

Three years into retirement, I found myself slowing down more than I liked. Then my daughter and daughter-in-law convinced me to join the 28-Day Challenge at Beachside Barbell. I was hesitant, to say the least. At 69 years old, out of shape, and walking into a room full of energetic young people, I felt completely out of my league.

From day one, Mat and Nicky, the instructors, made me feel welcome. Despite my nerves and limitations, they never made me feel out of place. That first week was rough—I was out of breath and couldn’t complete most of the sets. But Mat and Nicky were always there, encouraging me, guiding me, and reminding me that I could do this.

They don’t just coach; they genuinely care. They take the time to explain, adjust, and motivate. They go above and beyond to make sure everyone, no matter their age or fitness level, feels empowered and supported.

Thanks to their dedication, I’ve lost 20 pounds, I feel stronger than ever, and yes—I can now do 25 push-ups! I truly feel better than I have in years.

If you’re thinking of trying something new or getting back into shape, no matter your age, I can’t recommend Beach Side Barbell enough. This experience has been life-changing.

Beachside Barbell is an incredible gym!
Mat and Nicki are amazing trainers who truly go above and beyond. They push you to be your best self while creating a supportive, welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. Whether you’re just starting out or a seasoned athlete, this is the kind of place that motivates you to show up, work hard, and enjoy the journey.

I joined Beachside Barbell a year ago and can honestly say it is a place that has equipment. There are weights and also machines. The staff are humans and they usually are kinda nice. The lighting is bright and the floor exists.

One time I saw a guy lifting a thing and he seemed committed. I personally used a machine and did a number of reps for my muscles.

The music plays from speakers. Sometimes it is loud. There are mirrors which reflect images accurately.

Also, I once owned a turtle named Marcus and he liked cucumbers more than lettuce, which is uncommon, but not unheard of.

Anyway, this gym is definitely a facility for physical exertion. I would theoretically recommend it to others if they asked me directly and looked me in the eyes.

Would absolutely recommend Beachside. Mat & Nicky are the best! Whether you are going for a class or a 1:1 session, you truly get the best work out each time. They are flexible with your schedule, make the workouts fun, and they make the process of booking and scheduling sessions easy. I’ve seen the most results from these workouts over the past few years than I have from anything else. They are accommodating and truly care about your progress and results!
